This is such an excellent idea, Casey! My wife and I love the Myst series (must play them again, soon) and have made a few projects along their themes, over the years. Seeing your implementation of a hidden cabinet with all the elements of a typical Myst puzzle has persuaded me to do something similar. I came here looking for ideas to build a puzzle lock for a side door on a new garage I'm building (I hate having to fetch a remote or keys if I'm already in the garden and want to pop in to my workshop or the garage).

If I do use your idea for my garage lock, I'll come back here and let you know.Well done - and thanks for publishing your project. I feel guilty for not having the patience to document any of my projects as an instructable. I'm so glad that you did!
